Official Trunk Triangle club thread - Page 13 - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

It was not serious, I meant that's how you rotate them while you're driving.

Humor isn't humor when you need to explain it, I guess it wasn't that good.

My 240D is in but I'm too lazy to go open the trunk and take a pic. Just take my word on it!! Came from a '77 200 in the scrap yard.

Does anyone know of a source to replace just the reflective plastic?

A related FYI on this thread. I called around to all of the Houston dealers to try and find the mounting clip. One refused to order it and the others wanted between $35 and $40.

Duvall is supplying it for under $15.

They extra cool looks are worth the cost, at least thats what I think.

I'm in! Original owner of the triangle, who uses his 300D as a farm car, said the triangle got hit on the highway, hence the not so perfect look. Adds a little character. And thanks to cscmc1, I could clip it in!

Abadjay · #**193** 05-15-2009, 10:33 PM

I'm in! I just got mine 2 weeks ago. Put it on the back of the SDL!

TchTchr · #**194** 07-21-2009, 10:11 PM

I'm in....found one today in a Louisville pull yard in a 500SE. I would like to trade it for a folding version with the yellow box to fit my wagon though. In the mean time it is going on the garage wall - I think it will look pretty cool there.
